The answer is yes. The "stock" input filters cover the Ham bands. The KBPF3 fills in with similar coverage for the frequencies outside the Ham bands across the tuning range.

I know that's a ridiculously broad question but... with the KBPF3 is it fair to say that the receiver performance is similar to what it is on the ham bands? I'm looking at choices right now but very likely to be buying a K3 in a couple of months after I've moved house. I may have some other questions but the KBPF3 is likely to be one of my first extra modules because I enjoy listening around. 73 Ross KT1F ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
